"Rock and Roll Machine" is the second studio album by Canadian hard rock band Triumph, released on November 3, 1977.

The album was originally released only in Canada on the independent Attic label, but when the band signed an international deal with RCA Records in 1977, this international edition of the album was re-sequenced to include some of the tracks from their self-titled album "Triumph" (1976).

Artwork

The album cover on the original release (on Attic in Canada) features a robotic image of the faces of all three band members. On the inside each band member was given their own photo page, while the back cover featured next to nothing in information. This album's version has an elaborate superimposed guitar doubled within a pseudo-burning pentagram. The back cover featured track listing, and another superimposed guitar with a flaming pentagram.

A third version of this album was released in 1985 with different cover art showing the band on stage with rising flames coming out of the drum set.
